Update 9th July:Trekkers we believe are overnighting at Ua'Ule Creek. Tomorrow morning they will be picked up in our transport at Owers' Corner and driven back into Port Moresby. They have advised us they will be at Owers' Corner around midday. This would make them back at their respective hotels around 3pm.

Update 10th July: Trekkers were picked up at Owers' Corner around 2pm this afternoon. On the way back into town they will stop at Bomana War Cemetery. At this stage it is anticipated they will be back at their hotel around 4pm.
Tonight we met up with the trekkers and porters who walked with them on the track. Everyone said they had a good time but a couple looked like they had seen better days.
Tomorrow they will go out to Bomana War Cemetery as this afternoon all they wanted to do was to get to their hotel and have a shower and rest for awhile before meeting up with the boys again at 6:30pm.
Some trek pics for you all to enjoy:
